oil from the oil seeds of some trees. The leaves
and fruits of some trees are used to prepare
medicines.

 I gave students a passage on "food" and asked them to translate
it at home.
Food is essential for all living beings. Without food man cannot
live long. Every man has to eat a certain quantity of food. If he eats less
than that quantity, his health will fail and he will fall ill. So every man
has to eat enough food to live.
